1. Good quote. A bit similar to C.S. Lewis – “A children’s story that can only be enjoyed by children is not a good children’s story in the slightest.”

2. P.S I couldn’t see a link to add a review…

3. No links?

4. No linky area?

5. Madeleine L’Engle had words on this topic as well. As a writer, she said that she wrote the book that wanted to be, and if it was too difficult for adults, she wrote it for children.

6. Good quote! Here is what I read this week: Love of the Summerfields: https://barbarah.wordpress.com/2017/05/18/book-review-love-of-the-summerfields/

7. I liked the Shaw quote (and the Lewis quote, and the L’Engle reference). Here’s what I reviewed this week:
